In terms of acting?

Seriousy bro, all those completely unknowns on The Walking Dead blow them both away. A serious drama with absolutely no comedy what so ever about zombies and they pull it off? Thats acting.

I know you say it is my type of show, but go to the Rivals board and ask everyone to post their top 5 shows and see how many list it. You might get 2 or 3 that don't and they probably have not watched it.
